Great Day Out for the Family!
Mornington Racecourse Market is one of the largest and oldest craft and food markets on the Mornington Peninsula. This market is so popular it often stops traffic throughout Mornington—that’s how huge it can get!
After 15 years of working at these markets, I still take time to walk around and am amazed at the commitment and hard work of foodies and crafties towards their businesses.
Craft and Food Highlights
- ✔️ Mornington Craftmarket has one of the best assortments of stallholders.
- ✔️ High standard in food and craft stalls set by Craftmarket Australia.
- ✔️ A mecca for stallholders across Victoria.
☕ Food and Drink
- Grab a coffee from Dave in the big white truck or Coolies.
- Enjoy a croissant from the many bakers or a doughnut from Gino.
- Satisfy your hunger with a steak sandwich from Dave or a breakfast crepe from Mr. French at le Crêperie.
Lunchtime means bartering with stallholders for delicious food. I usually grab a calamari cone from the Calamari Bros or a traditional paella from Ladypaella. There’s also fantastic Balinese food, chicken skewers, tacos, dim sums, baked potatoes, and more. ️
